Wide roads and narrow lanes, posh localities and dingy colonies, administrative hub and roadside markets, historical glories and cosmopolitan lifestyle, all are inseparable parts of the National Capital Territory of Delhi.
Delhi is located in northern India in banks of river Yamuna. It is one of the oldest cities in the world. It was destroyed and rebuild seven times in history. It has seen the invasions and prosperity of Slave dynasty, Khilji dynasty, Tughlaq dynasty, Lodhi dynasty, Mughal Empire and the British Empire. The layers of legacies it holds within its heart makes the city rich and colorful. The Red Fort, the Old Fort, the Qutb Minar, the Lodhi Tomb and Jantar Mantar tries to whisper in our ears the magnificence of empires. Gandhi Smriti, Raj Ghat, India Gate reminds us of the struggle that led to Indian independence. Nehru Planetarium, National Gallery of Modern Art, National Museum, National Science Museum, Doll Museum gives valuable contribution to education and research. Dilli Haat, Chandni Chawk, Janpat and innumerable shopping malls tempt us to gather the variety in our arms that Delhi offers.
The mouth watering cuisine of Delhi becomes an unforgettable experience. From chaats and samosas to galore of Mughlai and Punjabi dishes can beckon any fussy eater. Haldiram, Nathu Sweets, Bengali Sweets are some of the famous restaurants. Delhi offers the fun of enjoying snacks standing in street corners and the comfortably relishing a meal sitting inside well decorated eating joints.
